Director of Off Campus Studies and International Students David Clapp coordinated the event on a windy day that threatened to blow the many lanterns (and the festival) across the mall. But the winds calmed just as the event began. Here Dave poses in front of the Chapel with Huan Nguyen as the festival gets underway.
